Beta testers and developers around the world continue to dive deep into iOS 7 and discover new capabilities. Today, another feature was discovered in the first beta of iOS 7. The iPhone has many purposes and one in particular is photography. The 8 megapixel camera on the iPhone 5 shoots great 1080p video, however, we did not have many features in terms of effects while shooting video.

We just found out that iOS 7 is able to zoom in while recording the video. This was a feature I really appreciated, as this is a first for Apple. It took 7 versions of iOS to finally get such a simple yet useful feature. Really Apple?

The feature is sort of self-explanatory, you just pinch to zoom in on a subject while recording a video. The zoom feature was indeed available for a normal photo shot, not for video.

Let us know what you think about this feature in the comments section below.
